Known for being used during the Apocalyptic Love and World on Fire tours this represents Slash’s first venture into red finish signature guitars. The Vermillion needs to be seen to be appreciated and we have never seen one in this condition. For over ten years old it’s like new! It was part of a limited run of just 1200 and we’re not sure how many were in Vermillion, whatever the number there aren’t many available and none likely to be in this condition.
This is another one that shouldn’t be confused with the current ‘Slash’ LP Standard line-up, these were spec’d with Seymour Duncan Slash Alnico II Pros in Zebra and solid AAA flamed Maple top, as well as vintage styled tuners.
It also comes with a Slash logo hardshell case. Other features include a ‘60’s style slim profile neck and vintage features.
With zero fret wear. It comes with all case candy, pickguard, packing checklist - all original and as it left the factory in the USA.

What we think:-
As you will know were’ big Slash fans at C n’ C and we love all of his Signature Gibson models. This one being no exception to that! The Vermillion is quite unusual and lighter in colour than the similar Rosso Corsa and is sure to get you noticed if you chose to play this killer sounding Axe, alternatively surely a collector piece for the Slash fan not to be missed.
